Musical Worldview: John Prine, 'Spanish Pipedream (Blow Up Your TV)'

“Blow up your TV 
throw away your paper
Go to the country, 
build you a home
Plant a little garden, 
eat a lot of peaches
Try an find Jesus on your own”

Musical Worldview: John Prine, 'When I Get To Heaven'

“When I get to heaven, I'm gonna shake God's hand
Thank him for more blessings than one man can stand
Then I'm gonna get a guitar and start a rock-n-roll band
Check into a swell hotel; ain't the afterlife grand?

And then I'm gonna get a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale
Yeah, I'm gonna smoke a cigarette that's nine miles long
I'm gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl
'Cause this old man is goin' to town”

Musical Worldview: John Prine, "Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore"

“While digesting Reader's Digest
in the back of a dirty book store
A plastic flag, with gum on the back
fell out on the floor
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside,
slapped it on my window shield
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
I'd tell her how good I feel
But your flag decal
won't get you into Heaven anymore
They're already overcrowded
from your dirty little war
Now Jesus don't like killin',
no matter what the reason's for
And your flag decal won't get you into Heaven anymore.”
